Top PDP strategists-turned human rights activist Tunji Moronfoye has said women and young people do not have the competence to serve in public office.

Speaking on his weekly radio programme at Albarka FM on Thursday, Moronfoye criticised Kwara State Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq for nominating women and young people into his cabinet when he could have appointed men and older people to man the various ministries.

"I'm surprised that the Governor is just populating his cabinet with just women and young people. Ministries are supposed to be manned by people who are supposed to be consultants in their fields. What experience do women and young people have to do so?"


Moronfoye, who was for many years a member of the Saraki kitchen cabinet, said Kwarans should reject the cabinet picks of the Governor.

But various callers condemned Moronfoye for his discriminatory comments against the women nominees and young people, insisting he was an agent of backwardness and a bitter opposition figure who is just hiding under a radio programme.

One of the callers insisted that Moronfoye's programmes were being sponsored by Saraki.

"We heard that you have paid for two years for all the radio programmes and what you do basically is just to attack the new government of the people while pretending to work for some faceless NGO. The question is: where did you get the millions of naira to pay for these programmes? Who is sponsoring it and to what end? Who pays for the many cards you share?" a caller blasted him.

Another caller said Moronfoye's programme is purely meant to spread propaganda, likening him to other Saraki's allies like Otukoko Ibrahim, Comrade Ishowo and handlers of Efura, another radio programme which solely attacks the new administration of AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.

"The new administration is a baby of the people of Kwara State and we can see the great things it is doing especially in the areas of prudent management of public resources, health delivery, prompt payment of salary, education and road maintenance and so on," he said.

Opposition is an art which PDP has zero clue about,

He or she is right,

They are more on big brother
Wasted generation

This piece of nonsense from a faceless online blog by a nameless writer has come to my attention this morning.

If there is anything any farther from the truth, this is it.
Please I beg you, do not involve me in your dirty political games as I have made known several times that I have no political affiliation for now.

I coordinate an NGO where the first cardinal point is empowerment of women and the girl child. So it is very clear I stand solidly behind the feminine majority appointments made by His Excellency the Executive Governor of Kwara state Mal. Abdulrasaq Abdulrahaman which I have stated time and time again on which ever radio station I appeared after the appointments were announced.
As a matter of fact my NGO is giving an award to governor for being the first governor in the history of nigeria to have a feminine majority in his executive cabinet.

In conclusion, I passionately appeal to who so ever is behind this tranvesty and fallacy to leave me out of their naked dances in the marketplace. I have renounced partisan politics for now.
My humble regards.
